Stanford's Continuing Medical Education (CME) Program has grown into the leading radiology CME effort in the country. In FY 2006, we welcomed over 3,300 registrants to 14 courses from more than 24 countries. Our symposia are developed to educate radiologists, technologists, and scientists about impending transitions to new and emerging technologies. In 2006, we grew our program by introducing courses on PET/CT and molecular imaging, small animal imaging, and the treatment of venous disease. Our International Symposium on Multidetector Row CT (MDCT), now in its eighth year, is one of our most successful programs. We had a record-breaking year in 2006 with 950 attendees. The meeting has been groundbreaking as a new model for education in radiology, and its influence on the field is unmatched.
